Chapter 368: The Old Man Who Fights the Shift
It was about one o'clock in the morning.
I stood outside the tent without moving or saying a word, Lao Dai and Li Muyang walked up to my side and frowned and asked, "Where are the ghosts you received?"
I shook my head and whispered, "Fart, don't you notice that the scene around you is changing"?
Lao Dai looked around for a moment and said, "Like, it seems to be really changing, didn't we have a tree here just now?" Isn't it, what about the tree"??
The more Lao Dai spoke, the more shocked I became, and I was also confused, and said: "My special mother knows a fart, as soon as it comes out, that's it, and the downtown just now is gone, only the sound."
"It can't be that something came after we just fell asleep, right?"
I shook my head and said, "No way, I've been patrolling the black and white Pisces, and if there was anything, it would have been swallowed by the black and white Pisces a long time ago."
Lao Dai glanced behind him again and said, "Could it be that a ghost hit the wall"?
"Possibly, I'll see with the eyes of the Tao."
As I spoke, I closed my eyes directly, but as soon as I closed my eyes, I heard a slight footstep coming, I frowned and slowly opened my eyes, but I heard Li Muyang say, "Something is coming towards us."
When the words fell, Li Muyang suddenly shouted: "On the right"!!
We looked to the right at the same time, but we didn't see anything, only a small cluster of light in the air.
Knock knock, I heard the sound of knocking on the bamboo tube, and the sound of the bamboo tube was accompanied by a deep and hoarse voice.
"It's dry, be careful of the candle, knock, knock".
After the man finished speaking, he knocked on the bamboo tube again, and I took a step forward and said, "Playing the watch?" Where is the change here"?
After a while, I finally saw a hunched old man wearing a straw hat and holding a tool for beating the watch, he shouted as he walked, and soon came to us, I didn't move and stared at him so closely, but the old man who beat the watch didn't seem to see us, still shouting, always knocking, until he passed by us, he suddenly stopped.
I frowned, pulled the two buddies and took a step back, but saw the old man slowly turn his head to look at us and said in a deep voice: "This is not a place where you can set foot, I advise you, hurry up"!
The old man spoke with a feeling of intermittentness, like a robot, I just wanted to speak, he knocked on the tool and walked forward, and I was surprised to see that the old man disappeared in place without taking a few steps, I glanced left and right and saw the traces of the old man, Li Muyang turned his head to look at me in surprise and said: "This is a ghost, right?"
"I don't know, this person has no yin qi, no ghost qi, why did he disappear all of a sudden." I said confusedly.
After being silent for a while, I simply walked directly to the tent and said, "Oh, no matter, continue to sleep, just let the black and white Pisces stay around, there will be no chaos."
After speaking, I directly opened the zipper of the tent and walked in, and the two buddies helplessly glanced at the dark bamboo forest around them, and said, "Sleep."
Saying that, the two buddies also walked into the tent, and it was strange to say, as if since the old man who played the watch came out and roared twice, the black bamboo forest was completely quiet again, what kind of ghost market, gongs, drums, and suona all disappeared, and the most that could be heard was the sound of insects in the woods.
The next morning, I was noisy by the sound of birds, and when I opened my eyes, I found that the sun outside had shone down, I stretched a lazy waist and squinted and walked out of the tent to catch a few breaths of fresh air, just when I wanted to go into the tent to get a backpack, I suddenly found that the scene that changed yesterday has changed again, and the tree that Lao Dai was surprised yesterday has also returned to its original position, I yawned and shouted: "Li Muyang, Lao Dai, hurry up, there is a situation"!!
As soon as I shouted like this, I heard a rapid sound coming from inside the tent, and then Lao Dai and Li Muyang rushed out and looked at me and said, "What, what's the situation?" What happened again"?
I shook my head and smiled and said, "It's okay, it's nothing, I'm thinking it's faster to call you like this, otherwise you will definitely have to rely on half the day."
When Li Muyang heard this, he closed his eyes and showed an unhappy face, and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm rm, I finally fell asleep, what's your name."
I smiled and said, "Don't complain, we didn't sleep well yesterday, since we're all awake, let's wash up, yesterday I actually walked in the black bamboo forest for a day, and I was very scary to think about it."
Li Muyang yawned and walked to the side with portable toiletry tools and got busy, Lao Dai was the same, ten minutes later, we were ready to go in the right direction again.
"Hey, you said that yesterday's mirage-like ghost market I can understand, but yesterday's watchman, what the hell is it, real person? But yesterday I didn't feel a little bit of popularity in him."
Li Muyang walked beside me and asked suspiciously.
I stepped onto the dirt slope in front of me and said, "I guess it's a wild soul in the mountains, I was a watchman when I was alive, and I don't know why I came here after I died."
"That's really fresh, this wild soul in the mountains will actually persuade us..... Let's go"?? Lao Dai said at the end, using a surprised tone.
I smiled and said: "This soul is changed by people, but the degree of resentment depends on them or various factors in the outside world, yesterday I saw that there was no resentment on the body of the watchman, I think, if someone in the black bamboo forest accidentally broke in, and lost his way, then he will appear to help them, you see in the second half of the night last year, didn't it quiet."
"You mean, this is a character who specializes in saving people?" Lao Dai asked.
I nodded and said, "It should be, and if I'm not mistaken, those things last night, I should be afraid of this fight."
I put forward another bold idea, and the two of them were stunned at the same time, and then Li Muyang said again: "Your idea is really bold, so to speak, this one may really be an errand in the underworld."
"It's not impossible, right, after all, some of the yin is still friendly to humans."
Li Muyang smiled and said: "I don't know where the current location is, and there is no signal, let alone the Internet."
"You don't know if your two little sisters have sent you a message, do you?" Lao Dai looked at Li Muyang and asked.
Li Muyang was stunned for a moment and said: "You don't deduct pots for me, what will change the taste when you get to you, you are a sauerkraut jar, right?"
Lao Dai and I both smiled, but it is true that as Li Muyang said, we really don't know where our current position is, this heart, can never be stable, if you go the wrong way, then all the previous efforts will be wasted, but! If we go right, then there is a greater danger waiting for us ahead, which is certainly not to be said.
In the black bamboo forest, we will walk the flat road for a while, and walk the road that is not on the road at all, anyway, the more we go forward, the more difficult the process of this march will be, and we can still see a few animals or people stepping out of the route, but as soon as we get to the front, there is nothing, and some are just uphill and downhill, and the trunks of trees and trees are extremely difficult to walk.
But fortunately, there is a saying that is bitter and then sweet, we walked on this difficult road for more than two hours, almost close to 10 o'clock, we finally saw that there was a flat road in front of us, Li Muyang exhaled a breath and said: "I can be regarded as having passed the broken road, and my legs will be sore when I go down."
I also gasped for a while, paid attention to my feet, looked ahead for a while, and said, "This is more difficult than the mountain road in our hometown, but I have also lived in the countryside since I was a child."
"Is it called a mountain road just now, I can't even see the ground, it's all bushes, you said that if a big python comes out under the bushes or a deep pit, it will fall and you will not die." Li Muyang complained.
I subconsciously stuck out my tongue and gasped and said with a smile: "No way, during the previous Anti-Japanese War, those seniors walked a hundred times more difficult than us, and they still stood up, and we, the juniors, still have to learn their spirit."
